Özet

Electrical and mechanical equipments can be major sources of interference for wireless systems. This paper presents the effects of both noise and interference in a wide frequency band between 100 kHz and 3GHz. Electromagnetic field (EMF) strength measurements of the impulsive noise taken at various locations such as computer labs, TV stations and hospitals are presented. Measurement results are fitted into a mathematical model and it is shown that the amplitude probability distribution (APD) functions derived from the measurements can be described by the Middleton Class-A model. © 2008 IEEE.
